Why Posterior is asking

As of 2026-08-15, the White Sox are 64-58 and lead the AL Central by 4.5 games over Minnesota and Detroit. No White Sox players appear on the Posterior free-agency watch, so this question covers stretch-run pitching management instead of a contract decision.

Keep top starters on normal rest
Use a six-man rotation to manage workload
Shorten starter outings and lean on the bullpen
Rest key arms for a potential postseason
